Hello and welcome to rootschat.
It looks as though you have quite a bit of information about the family so to prevent people provifing you with what you already have - where have you looked to date?
I can see the girls with relatives in 1851 but don't see Matthew until 1871 in English censuses but you are fairly specific about the date of their leaving.
Have you checked for deaths in parish records?
What about wills?
best wishes
heywood

Att. William Mc Nally
I believe your GGGrandfather Mathew Redmond O'Fallon was born abt. 1838 Roscommon. Married Susanna Elizabeth Kneale 1869. Lived 59 Belmont Road Liverpool.
Yes i think his Father was the missing John William O'Fallon.
Mathew Redmond O'Fallon was the brother of my GGrandmother Charlotte Chadwick O'Fallon.
I have most of the O'Fallon history relative to my branch but have been unable to trace John William O'Fallon and his wife Jane Conry.
Any info you have would be appreciated.

Hello,
if you have searched then I can't think of anything else - sorry.

I did wonder why you thought the children left abt 1848 - as I said I can see the girls with their aunt and uncle but not the boys.
I did look at the time - did John W (son) end up in America- but where was he and Matthew Redmond in 1851 and 1861?

Do you know the parish they family were living in?

regards
heywood

Hi heywood
Thanks for your interest.
I think something happened to their parents, but no real idea what.
John William emigrated to Canada/USA in about 1850. Have traced him.
Mathew Redmond went to Liverpool at about 1848/1850. Died West Derby District 1902
Alicia and Charlotte Chadwick(My GGrandmother) were taken to London by their Uncle Peter Mc Donnell and his wife Marie(nee O'Fallon) In 1851 Census they were all living at 27 Claremont Terrace St. Pancras. ages given Alicia 16 years and Charlotte 9 Years, both give birthplace as Dublin, both boys birthplace given as Roscommon.
I am of the firm belief that somebody knows what happened to the parents, they could not just have gone missing, it was the time of the famine with little or no records kept in Ireland, but the Mc Donnell's must have known and told members of the family, but it has been kept a very close secret.
 With kind Regards. alecjack
